Eye can't help you.AN Indian holy man who claimed he could cure Aids by looking into the eyes of his patients has been arrested. Following a complaint by local people, police asked Swami Garoju Kanakachari to display his powers in the presence of doctors at a government hospital in Vijayawada Vijayawada (vĭjä'yəväd`ə), formerly Bezwada, city (1991 pop. 845,756), Andhra Pradesh state, SE India, near the Krishna River delta. . But the swami's powers failed him in front of hundreds of onlookers. The patient, who was running a high fever, did not show signs of recovery and his temperature actually rose after doctors checked it with a thermometer thermometer, instrument for measuring temperature. Galileo and Sanctorius devised thermometers consisting essentially of a bulb with a tubular projection, the open end of which was immersed in a liquid. . Police have now charged the swami with "cheating". |
